Fuji Electric Railway Mo 1 Electric Train

Model: Mo 1
Document Number: 100910131259
Location: Inside the Kawaguchiko Station of the Fuji Kyuko Railway
Address: Kawaguchiko Town, Minamitsuru District, Yamanashi Prefecture
Year of Manufacture: 1929
Type: Mass-produced model
Manufacturer: Nippon Sharyo (Japanese Vehicle Manufacturing)
Surveyed by: The Railway Technical Research Institute / Railway Friends Society
Features:
The Mo 1 is a half-steel electric train, built specifically for the opening of the Fuji Electric Railway in 1929.
It was designed to handle steep gradients and was equipped with two pantographs and sandboxes to improve traction. It also featured multi-unit control for linked operations.
Although the train was modernized in the 1950s, the original body was transferred to the Ueda Maruko Electric Railway (now Ueda Kotsu) and used as a passenger car (Kuha 251), later renamed Moha 4257. To celebrate the railway's 60th anniversary, Fuji Kyuko bought back the train, restored it as the No. 1 car, and preserved it.
Exhibition Status: Not open to the public
Survey Date: September 23, 1999

This train is an important piece of history for the Fuji Electric Railway, representing the early development of rail transport in the Mount Fuji area and preserving the technological advancements of the time.
